[Dx4win] Groups Vaporized

Thanks Paul!

 

That worked and the Groups and Group Names are restored. Meanwhile I did rid the log of duplicates a few days ago . The Group Names may have gotten deleted when I did that.

Jim,

 

If I understand you correctly, you have two logs. ONE with the group names

but not the latest QSOs, and number TWO without group names with the latest QSOs.

 

In this case:

Open log ONE

Delete all QSOs (QSO | Multiple QSO operations) 

Merge log TWO (File | Import | Merge DX4WIN log)

 

File | Save As using a different name just to make sure,

PS I have no idea how this can happen, except for importing a log into a

new log that did not have any groups defined.

About two and a half years ago (10/22/2017), I experienced this same event.



I opened my log today and when I went to Filter>Edit Group Names, I saw that
all Groups were gone and the log showed no Group Names. I have (had) 174
Groups. 



I have a recent backup from 5 days ago that does show the Group Names. I
could manually update that log with the intervening QSO's but wonder if
there is an easier way.



As to the cause, I have no idea.
